The Effects of Simulation-Based Arterial Blood Pressure Training on Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Students

The Effect of Simulation-based Arterial Blood Pressure Training on Theoretical Knowledge and Psychomotor Skills Among Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Students: a Randomized Controlled Study


Sponsor

Acibadem University

Enrollment

75 participants

Start Date

Jun 1, 2026

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The aim of this clinical study is to assess the effectiveness of simulation-based arterial blood pressure training provided to undergraduate students in physical therapy and rehabilitation. The main questions it aims to address are as follows: \- Does simulation-based arterial blood pressure training affect the knowledge, skills, clinical competence, satisfaction, and self-confidence of undergraduate physical therapy and rehabilitation students? To examine the effects of simulation-based arterial blood pressure training-in which students engage in hands-on practice-on theoretical knowledge, psychomotor skills, practitioner competence, satisfaction, and self-confidence, one control group will participate in the study. Participants will: * All participants will receive standard theoretical training on blood pressure measurement and observe a practical demonstration. * The intervention group will additionally perform blood pressure measurements on a simulator under the supervision of an instructor. * Assessments will be conducted at the beginning of the study and 21 days later.

Interventions

OTHERSimulation-based arterial blood pressure training conducted on an individual basis

After participating in a standard theoretical and practical training session that demonstrated the step-by-step process of measuring arterial blood pressure using a simulator, the participants practiced individually on the simulator under the instructor's supervision.
